Anne Fontaine shirt

Tried it on. Sleeves are stretchy which is amazing. Asymmetric hem. But is it me? Can I wear this? Thoughts? I left it for now.

I think it is incredibly cool. But I thought you hated white and would not wear it?

Do you mind ironing?

It is a cool shirt but I think it is a bit too long for you - unless you go for a tunic.

It definitely looks like a departure from your usual style. I think you look good in white but I am concerned that it may overwhelm you just a bit.

Ditto Anna: I like it!

Is it comfortable to sit down, stand up, move your arms around in, without sliding around or gaping open over the bosoms?

I love it, but sadly, I think it's a little long on you.

Ditto the love, but too long comments. Is there a petite version? I love the style for you.

I am not sure ... I thought I didn't like it ... But when I imagine it with sleeves scrunched I think it would be fantastic. But again the length gives me a pause. If the shirt wasn't a tailored fit it would have been one fantastic boyfriend shirt! I think I would size up and go full on boyfriend style! Is that a possibility?

I too think it is too long. Could a tailor alter it for you?

If I cut-off the hem of your skirt in the pic and imagine black pants and heels with this it certainly looks edgy and cool...

I like this shirt on you and I think it has potential if styled right.

I have this shirt, and I wear it with skinny pants and heels. In the store, they styled it by belting around the hips, which looked cool but not really my style. I have actually had more use from my plain white AF shirt, because whilst the shoulder detail and the asymmetrical hem make this shirt look edgy, they also make it hard to wear anything over it. I think if you want a "statement" white shirt this is a great one, but it is not a good everyday basic workhorse.

Ok I think it's a no.... It's too much $ for an experiment that may not work. Thanks for talking me down! It is such a lovely shirt!

Una you and AF are not two things I ever would have expected to see together but this blouse is very cool on you. But understand that it may not be worth the risk of orphanhood at the price.

I think you were right to pass. My objection is to the collar, because from what I've seen you don't wear high shirt collars up near your face. I personally find my neck too short for that look, and difficult to find jacket or cardigans to layer over it, and I wonder if you - even if you aren't neck-impaired - would find it annoying or overwhelming.

The good news is that used AF can be found very cheaply on eBay so you can try one much less and see if it's worth a more costly plunge.
